Councilman Paul Koretz takes a stance against extending last call to 4 a.m.
Los Angeles Councilman Paul Koretz wrote a Los Angeles Times op-ed against California Senate Bill 58. The proposed law would allow 10 California cities including Los Angeles, West Hollywood, Long Beach, and Palm Springs to extend final nightlife drinking hours until 4 a.m. Former California Governor Jerry Brown vetoed the possibility last fall, citing more drunk driving as the reason. Koretz agrees by stating, “No one should ever prioritize a few hours of high bar tabs over public safety.”

Aggravated assaults and tacos
